Airbnb Customer Service is the Worst I should have listened to everyone who says Airbnb is the worst, but I have successfully stayed in Airbnb rentals all over the world. They haven’t all been perfect, but that’s life. I used to roll my eyes at all the shit posting about Airbnb. But now I am finally starting to understand the issues others have had with them. I had a 4 night stay b…

Acquire China Visa Prior to 3 Months Before Departure I will be applying for the category L tourist visa to China coming from Canada next summer. I plan to enter China as a part of a larger trip coming from Indonesia. From what I know, you have to apply for the visa within your home country no earlier than 3 months before your arrival in China or it will expire. The problem for me is that I may no…

Will WizzAir charge me for anything if I don’t show up for the flight? I’m actually on vacation, but I need to go back home sooner than I had expected. I was seeing though that the prices in order to cancel a ticket are very expensive. So, since the ticket I have to buy is pretty expensive too, can I simply not show up? I mean, I don’t think I’ll ever travel with WizzAir again, so I’m not scared with them not “trus…

Delta cancelled flight 3 times during same trip Are we entitled to be reimbursed by delta after they cancelled our return flight from Hawaii back to LA twice? They paid for a hotel both times but the second time the hotel had no water to drink, bath or flush the toilet. There was constant drilling all night and we couldn’t rest. We checked in at 2am We were on the runway 2 hours the second ti…

Our planned route is: Hanoi > Sapa > Cat Ba Island > Phong Nha > Hue > Hoi An > Dalat > HCM.

Should I visit San Francisco or Vegas for a weekend trip? My boyfriend and I (23 F, 25 M) are from New York and I want to get away from the city for a weekend so I’m planning a trip for late August. I’m not really looking to go clubbing/partying but I want to be able to sightsee, eat good food and possibly do cool activities/have a more relaxed trip. I visited Miami last year and hated how superficial …

Serengeti advice Hi! I’m planning a safari in Serengeti during the first week of September and I have only 4 days and 3 nights. I definitely want to do ngorongoro crater on the last day. I also definitely want to prioritize central Serengeti but I’m curious about North Serengeti. Is it worth doing both North and Central Serengeti? submitted by /u/who-dis…

Travel insurance for multiple countries I’m planning on spending 8-9 months in SE Asia before going to Australia on a WHV. Is it worth getting yearly insurance that covers both SE Asia and Aus, or getting separate insurance for each part of the trip. 1) I’m not sure when my SE Asia trip will end so it would be good to be covered for all of it, 2)I plan on travelling the first 6 months…

I applied for an eVisa for Cambodia and I keep getting an email (automated) asking for hotel and travel reservation documents to be attached. Because I am on a group tour and we will be crossing into Cambodia by loc…

Post vacation positivity. I found lots of posts for post vacation blues, but none for post vacation positivity. I always find that when I come home I want to do some revaluation, make more time for the ‘hobby’ that I’ve never really got going, eat better, exercise more, declutter, learn to drawn, improve my second language – whatever. I have the exact opposite of post v…

Question about visiting the Galapagos I am going to Ecuador for a 4 week school elective and am staying an extra week or so to hopefully visit the Galapagos. This will be in early September. I’ve done some research and I know there are essentially 2 options: 1) stay on an island and take day trips from there – is more of a budget option and may spend a lot of time traveling via boa…

Helsinki (May 2024) — An interesting nordic capital I went to Helsinki in May of 2024 during my study abroad semester in Prague. It was the final leg of my Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland trip. I was impressed by Helsinki, and there was a lot of cool stuff to see in the surrounding area (Helsinki itself might not have the most interesting tourist attractions, but the open air ethnographic…

Airtags in luggage Hi all! I would like to use Airtags for luggage since we are frequent travelers. Unfortunately, we are Android people and do not own any Apple devices. We do have some Bluetooth tracking devices that work with Android, but we need actual GPS devices that will track luggage in any country, regardless of its proximity to us. All my research tells …

ELI5 Breakdown of metro systems in various European cities Hello! I am leaving for a month in Europe starting in about 10 days. I’m trying to consolidate how I’m going to get around various cities. For reference, I live in Washington, D.C. You get a plastic metro card, put money on it, and you just swipe to enter the metro and swipe to leave, and it charges you by distance. You can add money as you need…

A relaxed 5-6 day trip in mid-September: Bruges/Ghent or Stockholm? Hello, I’m having my next vacation in the middle of September. Having checked out flights and accommodation I’m left with two options that both sound good to me, so I’d welcome the input of someone who has done one or both of them: Choice 1: Stockholm for 4 nights (preferably avoiding the weekend, to keep the cost of accommodation down). Scandin…

Flight from Florence, Italy Airport Hey guys I have a flight in a few days from Florence into Frankfurt. my flight leaves at 6:40AM but I’ve heard security doesn’t open until 4:00AM. Am I going to have enough time to navigate and get through security? I don’t have a bag to check but I’ve read reviews that the airport is terrible and I’m always super paranoid when I travel. Also i…
